demo version

lyrics

Once you touch her
You won’t forget her
If she wants you
You’ll always let her
When she touched me
Got under my skin
When she loved me
It was better than sin

I went back east
And I got lost
In a patch of jungle
I tried to cross
She called my name
I made a mistake
I turned to look
And she took my cake

She was Poison Ivy
She was my favorite itch
She loved me to pieces
Left me lying in a ditch
She was Poison Ivy
She really made me scratch
I thought I could take her
But I really met my match
In Poison Ivy
Poison Ivy
Poison Ivy
In Poison Ivy

I don’t want pity
I don’t want scorn
I only wish
I’d never been born
Once she touched me
Now she’s in my brain
Once she loved me
Now it’s the sweetest pain

She was Poison Ivy
She was my favorite itch
She loved me to pieces
Left me lying in a ditch
She was Poison Ivy
She really made me scratch
I thought I could take her
But I really met my match
In Poison Ivy
Poison Ivy
Poison Ivy
In Poison Ivy
